Kevin Nash is on the mend.
Earlier in December, WWE Hall of Famer Kevin Nash announced that he had to get surgery because he suffered a torn biceps muscle.
Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, Kevin Nash commented on his recovery.
“I’ve lost more weight, but it’s on purpose because I pretty much went carnivore. I’m just not eating carbs. I know that I’m gonna have a pretty, especially at 65, without being able to do any progressive resistance training, I’m going to lose a shit load of muscle over the next three months. But the beauty of training for 50-plus years is the muscle memory is there, and it’ll come right back. So I got out of the shower today, and I looked at myself, I said, ‘Woah, dude. You look 65.’ Usually I look pretty fucking…I mean, I look at myself, I’m like, ‘Fuck, you look….’ Today, I’m just like, man," Nash said.
Nash then noted that he was still able to work out somewhat. He highlighted how having to wear a sling was challenging, but he knew that he had to do it. Nash also stated that he had been sleeping in a recliner as part of his recovery.
"I’m doing the pulleys, I’m already doing some mobility. I’m supposed to have my sling on right now. It’s great I guess if you got a 14-inch fucking arm, but I still got Thanksgiving turkey for an arm, and you have a fucking thing wrapped around your neck, and the fucking weight of that arm is pulling into your neck, next thing you know, your right hand is going numb because [the pressure]. Fuck that. The thing is, they always say, ‘You need to keep your sling on so you don’t fuck up.’ Hey, I promise you, I’m not going to forget and get up in the morning and go, ‘You know what I need to do is go hit a bucket of balls.’ It’s like, fuck, I know. Sleep in a recliner. Tonight will be day 15," Nash said.
Nash also stated that he found his religion, as he prayed before he went into surgery, and he made it through.
"This time, before I went in, I found God, man. I found my religion. I said the Lord’s Prayer, I said, I’m going in, and please don’t take me from Tamara, don’t put this on her lap. I went in, and I came out, and it was rough coming out, it was hard coming out of that anesthesia," Nash said.
Fightful wishes Kevin Nash well as he continues to recover.
